Jan 10, 2017 Another asymmetrical moon of Pluto. NASA launched the New Horizons mission on January 19, 2006. Nine years later, the spacecraft flew by the dwarf planet Pluto on July 14, 2015. Infrared and spectral analyses should provide data sufficient to keep planetary scientists occupied for years. An estimated…
Jan 6, 2017 Is it erosion that carved these shapes? Some scientists think that the Egyptians copied their pyramids from natural formations. The Black Desert, among other locations, provides evidence for that contention. In the image at the top of the page is a large pyramid-shaped monolith in Wadi…
Jan 5, 2017 Magnetic fields in stars are not rare, study finds. According to a recent press release, astronomers from the University of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia “…discovered strong magnetic fields are common in stars, not rare as previously thought.” Pictures of the Day often note that astronomers…
Jan 4, 2017 Is this Bolivian crater an impact site? It is the contention of Electric Universe proponents that many (if not all) large “impact” craters on Earth are actually the result of interplanetary electric discharges. Previous Picture of the Day articles describe some of those formations: Manicouagan, Popigai,…
Jan 3, 2017 What prevents stellar dissipation? Children are taught from an early age that stars are “burning” balls of hydrogen gas. According to standard theories, it is a star like the Sun’s gravitational attraction that keeps planets, along with all other material, in orbit. Fusion fire releases energetic…
Jan 2, 2017 Is it liquid metal that circulates below the surface? On November 23, 2013 the European Space Agency (ESA) launched the Swarm mission satellites from the Plesetsk Cosmodrome in northern Russia. Swarm consists of three identical orbiters, Alpha, Bravo and Charlie, placed in two different orbital planes. Alpha and…
Dec 29, 2016 The Universe is filamentary. Conventional cosmological theories state that a black hole forms when a star with a mass about five times that of the Sun reaches the stage in its evolution where its thermonuclear fuel is used-up. Since stars are thought to be internally powered…
Dec 28, 2016 Is this Libyan oasis the remains of a volcano? If you quickly look at this picture you would think that it is taken on Mars, however the lake is a dead giveaway that it is on Earth. For those familiar with Electric Universe concepts, it bears all…
Dec 27, 2016 Pluto’s interaction with the solar wind confirms Electric Universe theory. NASA launched the New Horizons spacecraft in January of 2006 on a mission to study the dwarf planet Pluto, as well as other Kuiper Belt Objects far from the Sun. The probe flew by Pluto in…
Dec 26, 2016 Kristian Birkeland (December 13, 1867 — Jun 15, 1917) “According to our manner of looking at the matter, every star in the universe would be the seat and field of activity of electric forces of a strength that no one could imagine.” A previous Picture of…
